Wheat in America.

Concerning the introduction Of wheat
into America. reliable information is OBJ
'ainable. 1t may be difficult in the present
tlay TO realize the fact that wheat was at
one time unknown in America. Yet prior
10 the discovery of this continent by Co
lumbus there was no cereal in America
approaching in nature to the wheat plant.
IL was not until 1880 that wheat found
its way into Mexico. and then only by
chance. \ slave of COrtez found q few
grains of wheat in a parcel of rice, and
showed them to his master, who ordered
them TO be planted. The result showed
that wheat would thrive well on Mexican
soil, and today one OF the finest wheat
valleys in the world is near the Mexican
capital. From Mexico the cereal found
its way to Peru. Marie DEscobar. wife
of Don Diego de Chauves, carried few
grains to Lima, which were planted the
entire product being used for seed for
several successive crops. At Quito, Ecua-
dor, a monk Of the order of ST. Francis,
named Fra Jodosi BiXi. introduced new
cereal; and it is said that the jar which
contained the seed is still preserved by the
monks of Quito. Wheat was introduced
INTO the present limits of the United
states contemporaneously with the settle
nent Of the country by the English and
Gher European settlers.-Chicago Times.

A very pleasant evenings amusement
for number of people might be secured
by having n pronouncing bee conducted on
the same general principles as n spelling

be selected by a commit sc and written up

well with uncertain spelling, and there
are many smart men and women who
very wisely refrain from ink. 1t really
makes but small difference To society at

The Physicians Of New York.


Doctors rarely acquire fortunes The
scions of the Observation-Disclosures
Many make "A comfortable living; few fail
in the means Of existence. Indeed. many
doctors might achieve fortune had they
introduced the system Of partners, the
business methods, bookkeepers, etc,
which the legal profession has adopted,
but they cling to the old fashioned dignity
and relative iisinterestedness Of the call
ing. II their patients pay them, well and
good: if they do not, the loss OF time and
services i. put down Ia charity: and it is
safe to assume that this account is far
greater and more extended with physi-
clans than any other class of men, includ-
ing professional philanthropis,s.
The number of doctors is great in New
York, but, nevertheless, il is singular how
few one meets. At dinners, receptions
and balls in the city there will certainly
b. several representatives of the bankers.
brokers, merchants and lawyers; at the
most an occasional physician. In the
country at any of the summer resorts You
will be certain TO meet lawyers: out Of
three men, two will belong to the legal
profession; out of 300, two or three may
De doctors.
At II series Of dinners last winter I do
not remember any where the proportion Of
lawyers WAS not from two To three to one
ot another vocation. l only remember
one physician-and he came in late. 1t is
not that doctors have less appreciation Of
the social and agreeable phases Of life 1t
Is that they are quietly. unostentatiously.
naturally devoting themselves TO suffering
humanity. 1t is something they accept
with their diplomas: the mission Of being
at the instant call of suffering, whether
from rich or poor, and of obtaining their
rest, food and recreation il and vi hen they
can. Truly, we hold physicians TO strict
accountability, We whose life is personal.
